The first stack trace is unfortunately useless. The second one seems to be a bug in GStreamer. That's probably Jim Hodapp's domain.
Mediascanner has protection against files that cause GStreamer to crash the process from under it. It remembers broken files and skips them when it is restarted. Thus Mediascanner should never get stuck in a crash loop. The unfortunate state of media files and gstreamer is that we can probably never get rid of these crashes totally. Therefore unless someone can demonstrate a crash loop in Mediascanner (rather than just one crash per broken file) this bug should probably be downgraded from critical. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1364466 Title: /usr/bin/mediascanner-service-2.0:*** Error in `mediascanner- service-2.0': double free or corruption (fasttop): ADDR *** To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mediascanner2/+bug/1364466/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
